Acupuncture may be a helpful treatment option for a sprained knee, as it can help reduce pain and inflammation. However, it's important to note that acupuncture should be used in conjunction with other treatments, such as rest, ice, compression, and elevation. It's also important to consult with a medical professional before starting any new treatment regimen to determine the appropriate diagnosis and treatment modalities.
Yes, acupuncture will help speed the recovery of a sprained jointed.

How long have you had the sprain knee? Yes you should use acupuncture to treat it, the sooner the better.
There are two points on either side of the patellar ligament (I meant to say both sides). These are called, Xiyan, which means “eyes of the knee”. Take your thumb and index finger and aim them like you mean for them to cross in the middle of the knee joint. Press.
